Therapeutic Approach

Therapy is seen as a collaboration between client and therapist in discovering new and preferred ways to be in the world. I believe that every person has the innate ability to move toward health and healing and has the capacity to achieve it. My approach is to work in partnership with clients to identify what their goal is and how they want to approach making changes.

I am an EMDR certified and EMDRIA Approved Consultant. I have trained in a broad range of therapies including Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Brief-focused therapy, advanced treatment in Hypnotherapy, Multi-phased Trauma Treatment, Attachment Theory, Narrative Therapy, and Couples Treatment.

All human experiences create responses and memory within our bodies, cognitively (beliefs and narratives we hold), emotionally (feelings we have in response), and physically (how the body takes in experinecs through all the senses). When these life experiences are distressing and/or traumatic, these procedural learning patterned responses can cause us become more anxious, depressed, reactive and/or feel 'stuck' in our lives. We often experience a repetition of these patterns in our relationships, further re-enforcing patterns that prove distressing and unfulfilling. Psychotherapy has the potential to change these patterns, resolve traumatic events and destructive relational patterns. I have found integrating EMDR, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Attachment Theory, and Narrative Approaches provide effective ways to resolve both trauma and other powerful events that have impacted on our ability to pursue goals and happiness.

EMDR is an adaptive information processing treatment that is effective for a broad range of psychological, emotional, and physiological issues. Sensorimotor Psychotherapy is a therapeutic approach to process unassimilated sensorimotor responses to trauma and assist in assimilating these experiences both cognitively and emotionally. Narrative Therapy focuses on the stories people construct about their lives. Our stories inform us on how to act, think, and be in the world. These stories can be enabling and empowering or dominating and destructive. In my experience, an integrative approach to treatment is effective in alleviating the distress caused by trauma and other life events that otherwise can limit us experiencing our full potential.
